I recently read an article stating that snowboarding was on the decline because the snowboard itself was, as the writer put it… “an inefficient tool.” Well tell Dave Downing that. This living legend has been an integral piece in the evolution of snowboarding and its advancements… (enter splitboard stage left). Without words, he demonstrates how easy it is to set up a splitboard and head out into the backcountry for fresh lines and good times. If you are looking into splitboarding as the next step in your own evolutionary process, let Dave Downing inspire you. Enjoy!
